Except for the queen, everyone else in the harem was surprised and gave up on the news that Yun Fenghuang was very likely to die.
After all, everyone has seen how favored Concubine Min has been over the years. Even Empress Dowager Yuan, who raised Emperor Chunjia with one leg, had sex with her. What were they thinking about
But he no longer dared to offend Xuanqing Palace.
As for the previous dynasty, there was a strong undercurrent.
Because everyone felt that the noble concubine’s knees had no biological flesh and blood, so in the future they would have to support the King of Qin and the others to compete with the legitimate sons of the middle palace’s knees.
Not to mention that he can give birth to a child now.
For a time, the marriages of the young children of the Yun family and the Yin family were affected.
After all, both families have princes raised east of Yunfenghuang's knees. Everyone must consider the consequences of success or failure if the imperial concubine participates in the fight for the heirloom in the future.
When Jiang entered the palace, he specifically reminded his daughter: "The more you do, the more careful you must be at that time. I don't want to think that you are a noble concubine, and your Majesty dotes on me, so you can be careless. That person who hates me." , even those who had no grudge against me before, the eyes pointed at me and I wanted to get rid of them quickly... Those who congratulated me asked for permission for fear of offending them, but they just pushed it away, except for saying that I was sad about Zhaoqing. Son, I have no time to care about that."
The voice lowered, "The more it was at that time, the more it must be wrong that King Zhaoqing of Qin and the others were negligent. Otherwise, if people say that I have biological flesh and blood, I don't care about the unrelated emperor. How would you be happy to hear this? The children will grow up in the future. If you don’t get anything, you’ll lose your grudge, isn’t it true that you’ve become a successful person?”
Did she have experience raising unrelated children, and she raised them very well, and she gained a lot of reputation thanks to Xie Fenghuan.
Yun Fenghuang naturally accepted it with an open mind and said: "In the past two months, he saw King Qin and his companions a lot more times than in previous months. When he met Bidong, he mentioned the children a lot, but he didn't mention his body or bones at all. Son."
"Is that so?" Jiang Shi smiled slightly and said in a low voice, "I can only hope to get pregnant if I am in good health, and I can't say that I have given birth to the prince of Donglai safely. I think about my great-aunt, who has given birth to a child in her lifetime. Ten or so children, but no male heir, all of them girls! Although his son has great blessings and will definitely not follow in her footsteps, there is no need for others to laugh at me. Isn’t it okay for a villain to be arrogant when he succeeds? I will do it. That virtuous and magnanimous attitude, which the emperor of the East regards as his own, will make him ask for support from his brothers and sisters when his biological prince is born in the future. I am kind to the King of Qin and others, can I be a good worker?"
He also told her that even if her own flesh and blood were lost, she should not neglect her adopted sons and daughters such as the King of Qin. "After all, biological people will not hold grudges easily, but it is not necessarily true for those who are not related by blood!"
After saying that, Yun Fenghuang's face froze slightly, and he looked at her suspiciously: "So you were protecting Sixth Sister in everything back then, was that intentional?"
"Of course he did it on purpose." Jiang glanced at her and said with a smile, "I was very young at that time and he couldn't explain it to me clearly. He was afraid that I would be angry and say something bad. Because of the reputation of our house, you can say something about sisterly harmony to me. In fact, whether I am a legitimate daughter or she is a concubine, I don’t say that, and he doesn’t say, who is very different inside and outside. Are you clear? Is it possible that because my mother is a mistress and I respect my eldest sister who has the same father, the outside world despises me? Not only do they not look down upon me, but they feel that my mother is virtuous and generous, and the children she has raised are all good. Is it definitely good? Please tell me my grievance. In fact, it’s just some clothes and jewelry. Even if the servant girl is asked to pick first and I take it later, not to mention whether she will always let me go. I can only pick what I like. I don’t know how to choose, even if she gets it every time, how can I be a family member for my mother, and why should I be left in a bad dress?"
"Sacrificing such a small amount of benefits in exchange for everyone saying good things about us, I think it's not a worthwhile business?"
Seeing Yun Fenghuang staring at her, seemingly dissatisfied, she chuckled, "Shouldn't he protect my sister? To be honest, my sister is soft-tempered, but being filial and considerate is too much for me. At that point, it doesn't hurt if he loves her. Besides, according to the rules and affection, he should indeed favor me more. But if he does this, not only will I and his mother and daughter be ignored by everyone, but we will not be able to be virtuous and virtuous for our mother. My sister's evaluation was useless, and my sister's reputation was useless. How could my sister not feel uncomfortable? In this way, the three of them were not only alienated from each other, but also had no real benefits. But for my mother to protect my sister, I had to suffer for a while when I was a child. Later, Because my sister was wrong about me, I gradually pretended to be nice, and the sisters began to get along well. They were in harmony, and they all said good things about us... Please don't... "
She sighed, "Now, those who criticize me, back and forth, can only talk about Mrs. Qi. It's wrong with my upbringing, but it can't be said. Why? I don't think my mother is in the north. Does the place have a good reputation? Is my mother’s good reputation most likely achieved by using my sister as a gesture?”
"If Ming Qin King Zhaoqing rejects my attitude, especially Zhaoqing!"
"After all, among the emperor's heirs to my knees, the King of Qin and the Seventh Prince both have important ministers who are maternal relatives. The Ninth Prince is my heir named Dong."
"It's just Zhaoqing. Her birth mother has said she won't be granted the title of concubine, but she still acts like a slave in front of me."
"She's just a girl, she's very lame."
"At that time, I loved her very much and cared about her more than my own flesh and blood. Only then did I show my sincerity and virtue. Are you Minghong?"
Yun Fenghuang snorted: "Mother, you have a good life, and it is easy to shut up when it comes to the sixth sister. Zhaoqing is not a good-tempered person! He was thinking about it during the confinement period earlier, and when she grows up, he must give her some rules. After all, Gong Jin was no better than our kind. He was too pampered and jealous, which would have brought him trouble. Besides, when he had a quarrel with Sixth Sister, I was determined to protect Sixth Sister. It was not because of that. Sixth sister has never been shy, but she has been covering up for him? Please tell me if sixth sister is going against him tit for tat, even suppressing him everywhere, and I will help her?"
Jiang took a deep look at her: "Help her, why not help her? He told me, as the saying goes, it is easy to change from frugality to luxury, and it is difficult to change from luxury to frugality. Even if it is a biological child, if she did not give her enough rules when she was a child, she will grow up. No matter how harshly the queen is disciplined, she must not hate me, let alone someone who is not related by blood. Since Zhaoqing has been pampered to a certain extent, in the current situation, I beg her to behave within the rules, so that a child can have a good relationship between mother and daughter. If there is a gap, wouldn't all the previous efforts be wasted? It's better to just let her go. Anyway, she doesn't have me as her backer, so isn't that a sign of your Majesty's presence? As long as she is the emperor's favorite for a month, why should I care about her nonsense? "
"As for my own flesh and blood falling to the ground in the future, she won't tolerate Dong. Your Majesty is so wise and powerful, why don't you tell her some rules?"
"After all, it's a child I raised with one leg. Can I make her wings hard?"
The implication is that an adopted son or daughter who is not related by blood, who is sensible, considerate and can be raised well, will naturally be treated well.
If you are not careful, then use them all and cook them before their wings grow hard.
"...No." Yun Fenghuang pondered for a moment and said, "That's wrong. Have you chosen a companion for King Qin at home? King Qin and Zhaoqing will be six years old next year. I wonder if it was caused by the war in Northern Xinjiang. Originally, they I asked for admission when it was my birthday. At that time, Bidong said that we would start classes for them when they come back from the summer vacation."
Jiang asked: "Is the east of Princess Zhaoqing's palace also going to the palace?"
Yun Fenghuang frowned and said, "Doesn't he not want her to go? On the one hand, her leg injury seems to be badly injured and it is inconvenient to get in and out. She has a naughty temper. If something goes wrong again, it will make things worse; on the other hand, even if there are other things The biological mother of the emperor must have suppressed them and not allowed them to shut up. Children of that age may not be able to abide by the rules. When the time comes, she will be sad and sad, and he will have to follow suit. But she is so strong and tight. Before Bidong promised that she could relax in her studies. When she heard that King Qin and the others had been studying, they actually struggled to get up and asked to do their homework... Ruming Bidong felt sad, and her request, as long as it was not very serious, was granted. .”
He told Mr. Jiang, "Does he want to assign Kuo'er to be her companion? Although Kuo'er is thoughtful, he is also calm and steady. But he is afraid that Meng'er and Mei'er will be unhappy."
"That's not an unhappy question." Ms. Jiang shook her head and said, "Please Zhaoqing, please be nice. He won't say anything if I do that. After all, I have taken good care of our fourth bedroom. The fourth bedroom's children don't care about themselves." Who can be blamed for trying to live up to expectations? The key is that Zhao Qingruming is very young and we kept it from her. She doesn’t know what will happen to her leg in the future and what it means. She wants to have the temperament of my sixth sister. I It's okay if she is more considerate. If she hates anyone, she won't hate me."
"But since she is so strong, who knows if she will take her anger out on me in the future?"
"At that time, it wouldn't be a big deal if she didn't have a kid like Meng'er who was devoted to me. Maybe she could help smooth things over."
"Ke Kuoer... After all, she is not my biological niece, and the first thing she thinks about is a second wife?"
"Second room Ruming doesn't have any useful talents." Yun Fenghuang said, "Maybe they think something is wrong with him, and what's the benefit of wronging them?"
Jiang looked at her and said, "Now that I have asked whether I will be able to stand out as an uncontested new force, should I choose the second-bedroom Eleven as my candidate?"
Seeing Yun Fenghuang raise his eyebrows, he sighed, "Princess Zhaoqing, isn't she a golden girl? Compared with Princess Sui'an, she is the eldest daughter of Mingming! I asked Kuo'er to go to her side to accompany her. Now, maybe Kuo'er wants to tell her to the second wife's children? If I don't agree, my adopted daughter and niece will beg for separation; if I agree... then the child will be raised by the second wife."
"How old is Zhao Qing? Kuo'er is several years older than her. By the time she plans to get married, Kuo'er may have children." Yun Fenghuang said that, but he also felt that something was not right in his heart. After all, the emperor's eldest daughter is a very important bargaining chip. Unless Zhaoqing has everything she wants when she grows up, she will never allow her daughter to be transferred to the Xie family.
Will it be used to win over other famous families
Although the feasibility of what Jiang said was possible, she felt that she was watching. Even if Xie's second wife had her mind set, she might not be able to get what she wanted, but why give them a chance, right
He said, "But Meng'er's temperament is too careless. It's hard for him to take care of himself, let alone take care of Zhao Qing. As for Mei'er... the two months she came to the palace were tepid, but she couldn't talk about it. Delicate. With Zhao Qing's current situation, it would be best to have a gentle, considerate and tolerant companion by his side. Otherwise, he probably won't get along. But the legitimate daughters in the family, especially at that age, are probably a bit pampered. "
Although Xie's family background is not high, in the eyes of those wealthy families in the Imperial Capital, he is simply a country rich man.
But because the northern land was remote and the clan was powerful, local officials could not win over wealthy clans like the Xie family and the Qi family.
Therefore, the direct descendants of the family are all pampered and raised, and they will become more sensible when they grow up.
As a reading companion for a prince and princess who has just entered school, at that age, you can really roll up your sleeves and start a fight with Jinzhiyuye.
Xie Meng has that tendency...
There are really very few people who are as sensible and tolerant as Xie Kuo...
Yun Fenghuang asked Jiang at that time whether any of the nieces and nephews who had grown up in the past two years were so sensible and knew how to advance and retreat.
"... Please, let me see the concubines at home?" Hearing this, Mrs. Jiang was slightly embarrassed and said that her family had never thought about revitalizing the family, nor had she ever thought about leaving Sangzi and going abroad. Wrong. Of course, the upbringing of the children should be based on the ideas of local snakes.
And because the rules are strict and do not allow things like doting on concubines and killing wives, the interests of legitimate children are very strictly protected. In the East for many generations, the best descendant of concubines is probably Xie Fenghuan.
This is not a special case where the aunt needs to gain fame while she is docile and lovable.
In that case, if you want to find a little girl who can wink at a young age to be with the princess, then you can really consider a concubine.
The daughter-in-law in the family can only pretend, but the key is for a child so old, I can't trust her disguise.
What if one day she stops pretending and starts to quarrel or even fight with the princess, calling her Yun Fenghuang
Even if the niece is disposed of, it is difficult not to fall into the trap of nepotism and poor care in selecting the princess's companion, and then be questioned about the misbehavior of the princess.
Then there would be no embarrassment about blood ties. If Zhaoqing was Yun Fenghuang's biological daughter, where would all the trouble come from
But she didn't say no.
Therefore, all aspects must be considered.
"The status of a concubine is too low." Yun Fenghuang frowned when he heard this and said, "Don't let people think that he will seduce his mother's family and treat the princess badly."
Jiang said: "You can remember your aunt's mother's name and act as your aunt's daughter. Besides, the princess can only have a companion by her side, so she has to have someone of her own."
That's not true.
Yun Fenghuang pondered and said: "In two months, I will leave for the palace. Then let them come to see him, and also show it to the princess to see if there is anyone suitable. Otherwise, I have to see him." Those little girls from noble families should go. Bi Dongru Mingcuo Zhaoqing is very pity, and it is hard to treat her badly in the first place, otherwise Bi Dong will not say anything, and he may not remember Dong Lai in his heart. "
After the lesson she learned back then, no matter how generous Chunjia is now, she doesn't believe it anymore!
So the matter was settled like that. Jiang went back to help her find a companion, while she herself was thinking about which girl would be suitable for Zhaoqing's other companions
Two months before departure, Chunjia came to Huanhua Palace, visited Zhaoqing as usual, and then checked King Qin's homework. Finally, he mentioned to Yun Fenghuang: "It's time for the two children to go to school after returning from the summer vacation. Their companions Did I ever finalize the decision to come to the east?"
